The alley has many amenities in regards to food and every day needs.
The building itself, is quiet and generally clean. The indoor pool is perfect and well maintained as is the fitness center. The apartment is cozy but a good size for one person or a couple. The balcony is a nice addition to the living space. Insects were not a big problem if you left the balcony door open but you could get the odd fly or bee as the balcony overlooks the garden area of the complex.
Location is easy walking distance to BTS (elevated line) and MRT (underground) stations and there shopping and restaurants in abundance throughout the immediate vicinity.
Lumphini park is also within easy walking distance.
The neighborhood is also a center of French expat activity so if you explore the smaller back streets you can find some very nice cafés and eateries with good bread, fine cheeses and wines.
The owners, Rojji and Roland, are polite, communicative, knowledgeable and helpful.
I wholeheartedly recommend staying at this residence for any time you're in Bangkok and want to be central but also not disturbed by too much street life.
